In order to deliver our courses in a way that adds value to your daughter's learning, you will see in this guide costs attached to course outlines. These costs are deemed reasonable and necessary in order to give your daughter access to opportunities and experiences both in and out of the classroom.

As a kura, we itemise course costs in two ways

1. Compulsory fees - any materials used to create "take home" products of learning.

2. Course related fees - any materials that are used in the delivery of the curriculum.

We kindly seek your support and donation towards these curriculum related costs and are extremely grateful for this.

Please note that the information provided to assist students in selecting subjects is up to date, at the time of publishing this guide. To meet students' needs and interest there maybe adjustments made to the standards offered in a particular course.
